Short Jostling Poems

Surge of emotions,
jostling for my attention-
Stirred like a whirlwind....

Jasmine ( Pleiades )

Jam packed with sweet pollen 
Jostling with rival plants,
Jocular in Summer
January bare though 
Jazzy and beautiful, 
Jocose nasal senses
Joyous wonderful plant....

Eternal quest for peace led me down a
Solitary path of solitude, away from the
Jostling, maddening crowd of civilization!

jostling in the garden
bees and wasps compete
for the flower's favours

perched on a petal
butterfly uncoils its tube
then injects the flower

a gust of wind
the dried leaf leaps up
and dances in the air...

Jet black is the night as
 Jungle feline of stealth
 Jumps on its hapless prey
 Jaws able to crush bones
 Juicy reptile swimming
 Jaguar jumps in water
 Jostling with a caiman

Entering her royal courts at Brighten Manor....
Jovial the festive gathering jostling to find a place
Outside these walls as vantage their eyes; love's vista ?
Peasants of ancient old, and paupers; realigned, this gold....

Inside a deep casket of a dream
I hear the falls drop in soothing rhythm
natural as breathing.
I look up at a light so bright I squint
jostling me awake clutching precious gems
of nature's beauty and amazing grace....

Jackolantern

Jaws she blows tricks and treats
just the sweetest pumpkin,
jamming to candle light,
jaspers and goblins flight.
Jumping Jack's and Jills find,
jeweled cutouts divine,
jostling for lantern's glow.

such
    quiet,
    no
      noise,
a
stirring
    within,
notions
ideas
    jostling
    one another,
pushing
to the
     fore..
which
to choose..
..and
       use

inspired by Missisippi suite- Father of waters...

jackie-o'-lantern

jaws she blows tricks and treats
just the sweetest pumpkin,
jamming to candle light,
jaspers and goblins flight.
jumping jack's finds her door,
jeweled cutouts divine,
jostling to dip her treats.

just a minute
reflection -
just checking in,
just jostling,
against the rainbow of my mind.
just preparing,
just pausing, before taking
the byway to church.
where i’ll be -
just listening,
just praying,
just praising,
and remembering
just how blessed i am....

Amorous fissures in naked aura melt
Eager the water flow from your welt
Cross bosoms to plunder this wealth
Silky tips of erotic crushes in stealth.

Tender soft grasps implore sensation
Linger a while jostling cute creation
Jade moves in the ageless perfection
Glitter luster in eyebrow fascination....

pulpy punctured passion
pelvics pruning portions
pompous parts palpitating
heaving hoisted feelings
Twain turbulent tumble
tactic trend tremble

vile Vampire squatting
damped desire drooling
voluptuous teeth smirking

laced dripping
trickles; blood splitting
jumpy jazz jostling

feeble flesh foisting
tainted teeth tearing.

So nice they named it twice
Skyscrapers, bright lights, and Broadway
to entice

Many come from both near and far
Dreams of making it, sweet dreams of
becoming a star

Jostling for a seat at the round table
Salivating for a bite of the Big Apple


Crusted over orange skies with a
nebulous veil
Dreams slowly burn and morph into a
nightmare, now, a different kind of tale...

Beechwoods,downland and common heath,
Chalky soil inches beneath;
Trees,jostling tall,
Leaf,yellow-brown in Autumn,fall;
Fallow deer feed at dawn and dusk,
Treading flat the beechnut husk;
Open heath,sandy soiled,
Whence commoners once toiled;
Roedeer,muntjac proliferate
As Nature reverts and liberates;
Winding brooks and narrow streams,
In mingled,muddled childhood dreams....

Draped within the mountain top mist
I pause at the edge of the ravine
muffled in thoughts of deep denial
rage within, whilst jostling with the lure of life
when slipping again and again as i dwell
upon the love that once was mine.
I peer into the Abyss
lose my balance as I wake
my head buried deep within the pillow
yet knowing once again death I had foiled.

The mesmeric sound of wheel on rail

The constant rhythmic rattle.

Watching farms and fields flash past,

Oblivious to others prattle.

A half asleep unblinking stare

It's a sedative sensation,

Broken, when brakes are applied

As we approach the station.

Then back to the jungle,

It's each man for himself.

Jostling, elbows everywhere,

To get your luggage from the shelf....

I am lonely amidst people
deep insatiable longing 
for belonginess roots within
mind is slippery 
at the tentacles of misadventures
on the corollary of jilted love
love of women who gave me the sword
when I gave them sweetness

I am love-thorn
wet in desolation and dried of sensation
across the macabre 
where love was a jostling jamboree
You can’t believe
I am lonely
Even in the city of people...

Lovers’ passions blossom
as the years go by
transcending awesome,
no word of a lie.

Sweethearts closely walking
strolling hand in hand 
laughing, texting, talking,
sad stories are banned.

Smiling, playful, joking, 
just sharing some fun
stroking, kissing, poking,
keeps blues on the run.

Banter fuels hugging
two hearts meld as one
jostling, screaming, tugging,
magical times spun.

as all suns begin to evaporate
through the canals of salt
and tremble under the weight of water
and touch the untouched ground

the zealous trench is draped
with coral stags and seaweed-snakes
and teethed with pores of fire
which cleaves all light

as a strange fish, ill wander forever
the opaque, in search of nothing
in the hearth of origin, of dreams
in realms of jostling rainbows
ill plant my velvet flag
and sleep, in winding sheets...

GOLDEN   SHOAL



Playful twinkling school of sunbeams
Fluttering  o’er  the rippling streams;
Shimmering shadow of sun golden  -
His skyglow’s moving liquid children.
Jostling, splashing  at joyful ease  -
A shining shoal enjoying the breeze.

Note:

Ever watched the sun ripple off the waves of a river? This is what I saw this morning....

beechwoods downland 
           common heath
chalky soil 
      inches beneath

trees 
      jostling tall
leaf,yellow-brown 
          in Autumn fall

fallow deer feed 
    at dawn and dusk
 treading flat 
        the beechnut husk

roedeer muntjac proliferate
where Nature reverts 
                  & liberates

colours tint our view
         daylight
so soon out of sight
            
 waves goodbye

      all  creatures exhale

a sigh...
